Three Things to Think About When Buying a Desk Lamp

If the design of a lamp is rigid or inflexible, getting the right lighting to perform your tasks can be more challenging. When working, you need the freedom to move the light into different directions and positions. Thus, a lamp equipped with a flexible arm and movable head is your best option.

Color temperature describes the level of warmness or coolness of light. Warmer light means lower color temperatures, while cooler light indicates higher color temperature. Excellent LED desk lamps have extra features that allow you to change the perceived color of light. You can select the color temperature that best suits your activities, anywhere on the spectrum of warm white, natural white, and cold white.

Why should you care about the adaptability of color temperature? Well, a desk lamp with adaptable color temperature lets you choose the most suitable mood for diverse projects. If you want to transform your space into a comfortable and relaxing place to read, you only need to set your lamp to a warm white color. If you need to concentrate, change to a cooler temperature. Otherwise, you might be stuck with a desk lamp that only creates one kind of environment for very different tasks. 

Are you looking for more advanced LED lamp features? The auto-dimming function is a technology used by LED lamps that identifies the ambient light intensity and dynamically adjusts the brightness of the lamp to create an adequate environment. This feature also lets you forget about changing the color temperature; the lamp automatically adjusts it too. You can find an example of this technology in the BenQ WiT Eye-Care Desk Lamp. It includes an ambient light sensor that detects environment illumination and adjusts to match it, creating a more comfortable work environment.

Finally, before buying a desk lamp it's essential to keep in mind the size of your workspace. Identifying the dimensions of your desk relates to the size of the desk lamp in which you want to invest. Large desk spaces with PC monitors require more illumination. Therefore, a bigger desk lamp is necessary. Conversely, small spaces need more practical illumination sources. Be very careful about this aspect and check all size options available. 

A good desk lamp must offer you the correct illumination and a high degree of adjustability. These two aspects enable superior and personalized performance, surpassing any traditional desk lamp. A desk lamp with an LED light is always your best option. It offers higher brightness, glare and flicker reduction, and lower blue light levels. 

All the advantages of an LED light combined with ergonomic design give your space better light contrast and distribution while protecting your eyes. The BenQ Eye-Care Desk Lamp Series offers the optimal combination of illumination technology with total eye comfort. It does not matter if your work surface is large or small, there is a BenQ Eye-Care Desk Lamp to meet all your needs. You can select among the WiT Eye-Care Desk Lamp for large desks and big work surfaces, the Genie Eye-Care Desk Lamp  for medium-sized desks or the Screenbar Computer Lamp for limited workspaces.
